To bring more fun and laughter into the workplace, you do not have to put a thumbtack on your boss's chair, tell locker room type sex jokes around the water cooler, or slap colleagues on the back and say, "Did you hear the one about . . . " I'm not suggesting that you become a stand-up comedian or collect cartoons.

It demonstrates that you have enough self-confidence to laugh at yourself from time to time and enough sensitivity to put others at ease by commenting on the lighter side of what seem to be dead serious situations.
Naturally, you'll want to use your common sense and good judgement.
